Open the catalog to page 1Get forces up to 44,000 pounds from shop air pressure! Fabco-Air attaches multiple pistons to a common shaft and provides internal air passages through the shaft to all pistons. Thus, when shop air pressure is applied to the extend port, all pistons are pressurized simultaneously enabling tremendous thrust See the handy sizing guide below for avail- able force multiplying factors (column 3 - Total Effective Piston Area) and maximum operating pressures for various cylinder bore sizes. Sizing Example Force = Pressure x Area Exhaust Atmospheric Atmospheric Atmospheric Supply to Air Air Exhaust Air...

Open the catalog to page 6Multiple Stages Extend & Multiple Stages Retract When required return forces (Extend or Retract) are greater than the stan- dard single piston can provide, multiple stages (pistons) can be pressurized. This is accomplished by replacing one or more of the standard baffles with a ported baffle as shown in the illustration. When these thicker baffles are used, the overall length ("Dimension A") increases. See the chart below for port size and dimension details. Multi-Powei® Cylinders Ports externally Multiple Retract Atmospheric Vent Ported Baffle Multiple Extend Standard Baffle When any of these...

Open the catalog to page 8Adjustable extend stroke Full stroke adjustment is standard. To maintain operator safety features of this option, it is NOT available with mounting styles: -WR and -WFR. Use caution when mounting to avoid creating pinch points. Not available with mounting styles-PM and-SM. Dial-A-Stroke® provides a rugged and preci- sion adjustment of the extend stroke of the cylinder. The stop tube, adjustment nut with skirt, and minimum clearances combine to eliminate pinch points, thus providing operator safety. Note!
